SmokeHouse - Cadillac In The Swamp (1995)
Cadillac in the Swamp is a torrid, steaming album, powered by the gutsy, powerful songwriting
and singing of harpist Anthony Thompson. Smokehouse reworks the deep, swampy groove of
New Orleans and Delta blues, adding the electric energy of Chicago blues. Thompson is a raw,
greasy harmonica player, evoking the classic licks of Little Walter. He's not as good a singer --
his range is quite limited -- but he is a forceful and emotional vocalist and he's one hell of a
songwriter; unlike many of his contemporaries, he is not afraid of tackling big social issues.
Guitarist Robert Thomas is equally impressive, spitting out firey solos and muscular riffs throughout
the record. That musical dexterity and sinewy energy shines throughout Cadillac in the Swamp,
a first-rate modern blues album. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, AMG Enjoy !!!

Eddie Cochran - Summertime Blues (Town Hall Party - 1959)
John1948FourB1
Though Eddie Cochran was only twenty-one when he died, he left a lasting mark as a rock and roll pioneer.
Cochran zeroed in on teenage angst and desire with such classics as "C'mon Everybody," "Something Else,"
"Twenty Flight Rock" and "Summertime Blues." A flashy stage dresser with a tough-sounding voice, Cochran
epitomized the sound and the stance of the Fifties rebel rocker. But he was also a virtuoso guitarist, overdubbing
parts like Les Paul even on his earliest singles and playing with an authority that led music journalist Bruce Eder
to pronounce him "rock's first high-energy guitar hero, the forerunner to Pete Townshend, Jimmy Page, Duane
Allman and, at least in terms of dexterity, Jimi Hendrix." Cochran was also proficient on piano, bass and drums.
Beneath Cochran's polite exterior lurked an all-American rebel, and in death he achieved iconic status with several
generations of rock and rollers, from the first wave of British Invasion bands to the Sex Pistols (who covered "Something Else").
He even played an indirect role in the Beatles' formation. In June 1957, Paul McCartney taught John Lennon the
chords to Cochran's "Twenty Flight Rock" at a church picnic where Lennon's Quarrymen were playing. In the late Sixties,
both the Who and Blue Cheer recorded memorable versions of "Summertime Blues," a timeless anthem of teen disenchantment.
Cochran was born in Minnesota, raised in Oklahoma and moved to California with his family, where he began his musical
career in 1954. Initially, he teamed up with singer-guitarist Hank Cochran (no relation), touring and recording as the
Cochran Brothers, who performed in a country-rockabilly vein. Cochran's musical influences ran more toward the more
extroverted likes of Bill Haley, Little Richard and Carl Perkins, and that is direction he pursued as a solo artist in the later
Fifties. Cochran found a manager and collaborator in songwriter Jerry Capehart, with whom he worked until his death.
Cochran cut his first rock record, "Skinny Jim," for the Crest label in 1956. His big break came when he a movie producer
approached him to appear in the film The Girl Can't Help It, which featured his frenetic version of "Twenty Flight Rock."
That same year Cochran signed with Liberty Records, where he perfected a sound on "Summertime Blues" and
"C'mon Everybody" that featured driving acoustic and electric guitars, handclaps and tambourines, and lyrics that unerringly
expressed the alienated teen mindset.
Cochran recorded prolifically for Liberty, with mixed results. The label tried molding him as a crooner, and his debut album,
Singin' for My Baby, was full of schmaltzy ballads that had been foisted upon him. Cochran himself gravitated toward a leaner rock
and roll sound, and it is that aspect of his catalog - including not only the hard-rocking hits but such posthumously popular tracks
as "Jeannie Jeannie Jeannie," "Something Else" and "Nervous Breakdown" - for which he is remembered. He was especially revered
in Britain, where his influence as a rock and roll original endures to this day.
Eddie Cochran released only one album during his lifetime, which was abruptly cut short when the taxi in which he was
a passenger crashed en route to a London airport at the end of a British tour. Also injured in the accident were rocker
Gene Vincent and Cochran's fiancée, songwriter Shari Sheeley. The single Cochran released just before his death, eerily
enough, was entitled "Three Steps to Heaven." Ironically, he'd been planning for some time to cut back on touring in order
to concentrate on songwriting and studio work. ~SOURCE: http://rockhall.com/inductees/eddie-c...

The Death of Eddie Cochran 1960
Photograph taken of Eddie Cochran and his girlfriend singer-songwriter Sharon Sheely
two weeks before Cochran's final concert at the Bristol Hippodrome the following day the
car taking Sheeley, Cochran, and co-star Gene Vincent to London Airport hit a lamp-post
at Chippenham Wiltshire after a tyre burst - Cochran died in St Martin's Hospital, Bath,
and Sharon had back & leg injuries - she was visited in hospital by the Everly Brothers - Gene Vincent was unhurt.
The injured passengers were rushed to St. Martin’s Hospital in Bath where they were treated
by emergency staff. Cochran did not regain consciousness and died of severe brain lacerations
at 4 PM Easter Sunday, sixteen hours after the crash. Although his death made headlines in Britain,
the news received only minor coverage in the USA. On Wednesday, April 20th after less than three
days in the hospital, Vincent discharged himself with the apparent intention of flying back to Los Angeles
with Cochran’s body.
He immediately rang his mother in Norfolk, Virginia. Gene said “Eddie and I started together and we’re coming home together”.
Eddie Cochran was buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Cypress, California on Monday April 25, 1960.

Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran - Legends In Concert
Gene Vincent, was an American musician who pioneered the styles of rock and roll and rockabilly.
His 1956 top ten hit with his Blue Caps, "Be-Bop-A-Lula", featured here, is considered a significant
early example of rockabilly. He is a member of the Rock and Roll and Rockabilly Halls of Fame.
Eddie Cochran was an American rock and roll pioneer who, in his brief career, had a small but lasting
influence on rock music. Cochran's rockabilly songs, such as "C'mon Everybody", "Somethin' Else",
and "Summertime Blues", captured teenage frustration and desire in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
He experimented with multitrack recording and overdubbing even on his earliest singles, and was also
able to play piano, bass and drums.
